Meet the All-New BlackBerry Z10 – First BlackBerry 10 Device [VIDEO]

This is the moment we’ve all been waiting for – the BlackBerry Z10 has taken the stage and we’re pleased to introduce it to you. It is a gorgeous device in black and white, and it’s designed to showcase the elegance of BlackBerry 10.

When introducing the BlackBerry Z10, Thorsten Heins said, “This is the most beautiful BlackBerry we have ever launched. I can’t wait for you to try it out. We knew a large beautiful display was important. This is the window into the BlackBerry 10 experience.”

I would definitely call this the best BlackBerry smartphone to date! The BlackBerry Z10 has a specially designed screen for precise touch input, so typing on the BlackBerry keyboard can be faster and more accurate. The BlackBerry Z10 screen uses the latest technology to ensure images are sharp, clear and incredibly vivid.

The device and BlackBerry 10 software were designed together. At the core of the BlackBerry Z10 is BlackBerry Flow (something we’ve been showing off for a while); what this means is that you don’t have to seek information on your device. Instead, it’s delivered to you within thumb reach, so you can take action quickly and easily.

“Whatever you’re doing, you’re only one swipe away from the heart of all your activity.”

Of course, showing is better than telling, so I caught up with Nawdesh, a member of the BlackBerry product management team, to show me around BlackBerry Z10.

Nawdesh mentioned he loves the camera, and I definitely agree – the Time Shift camera feature is one of the coolest aspects to BlackBerry 10, plus the video camera can shoot stunning full HD videos. When it comes to viewing movies and photos, we’ve created a cinematic experience thanks to that gorgeous screen.

After using it for the past few weeks, I can say another great feature is the texturized backing and smooth edges on the device. It’s designed to let you have the ideal grip while holding it, but it can also tuck easily into a pocket or bag.

The wait is over, #TeamBlackBerry – what do you think about the new BlackBerry Z10? Be sure to let us know in the comments.
